High speed servo control of multi-axis machine tools
Abstract
Advances in high-speed machining technology, including those in spindle speeds and cutters, are out-pacing advances in the servo control performance of machine tools. To close this gap, new machine tools and improved controls must be developed. Improvements to machine tools under development include special-purpose machine tools, the use of advanced materials, the replacement of ball screws and ways with linear motors and roller guides, and the …
